'Ts there a fatility among our prom
inent men" is question that we often
ask, 1t is a question that perplexes
our leading medical men, and they are
at a loss to know how to answer it
We sometimes think that il the ply
sicians would give pant OF the energy
to the consideration of this question
that they give to combating other
schools of practice, it might be salts
factorily answered.
The fight OF "isms" reminds us often
of the quarrels of old Indian tribes,
that were only happy when they were
annihilating each other
If Allopathy makes discovery that
promises good to race, Homeopathy
derides it and breaks down its influ.
ence, If Homeopathy makes dis
covery that promises to be boon to
the race, Allopathy attacks it.
1t is absurd that these schools
should fancy that all of good is in
their methods and none in any 9th.
en-
Fortunately for the people, the mer-
it which these "isms" will not recog-
nize, is recognized by the public rec
ognition, taking the form of demand
upon the medical profession, event
ually compels it to recognize it.
Is it possible that the question has
been answered by shrewd business
men? A prominent man once said to
an inquirer, who asked him how he
got rich, II got rich because l did
things vile other people were thinking
about doing them" 1t seems to us
that the public have recognized what
this fatality is and how it can be met,
while the medical profession have
been wrangling about it,
By careful examination OF insur-
ance reports we find that there has
been a sharp reform with reference to
examinations (and that no man can
now get any amount ofinsurance who
has the least development of kidney
disorder, because they find that sixty
out OF ever hundred in this country
do, either directly, suffer from kidney
disease. Hence no reliable company
will insure man except after a rigid
: urinary examination.
Thisreminds us Of little instance
, which occurred short time ago. A

The editor expressed surprise at tht

=. What are we to infer from such cir

~ men, found the secret answer to til
inquiry? Is it possible that our co
umns have been proclaiming, in tn
form OF advertisements, what has pro,
